Bottle. Pours black with tan head. Nose and taste of tons of milk chocolate with milk sugar, vanilla cream and an underlying coffee/black malt roast. Medium body.

Location: 12 oz bottle from Buy Rite, 1/13/13
Aroma: The nose is mostly chocolatey, everything else is muted, with some roast and mocha notes
Appearance: It pours a dark brown-black color with a lasting froth of tan head that leaves heavy lace
Flavor: It is sweet, just like you'd expect from the nose, the chocolate malts continue to dominate
Palate: The body is medium, leaning light, fairly creamy, with a soft carbonation, and a smooth finish
Overall Impression: This is a well-made, but fairly one-dimensional beer. If you like chocolate there isn't too much not to like, but if you are looking for a beer with a little more depth or dimension to it, you may be disappointed.

Pours mahogany-tinged black into a pint glass. Mocha head crackles and recedes to mottle surface. Chocolate and espresso aromas. Sweet caramel upfront turning to chocolate in the dry, lasting finish.
